“Transformative Wellness from the Inside Out”

Guiding values: AUTHENTICITY | PRESENCE | KINDNESS

Core coaching areas: sustainable habits whole-person well-being somatic healing & nervous system care mindfulness & self-compassion chronic health support & resilience stress & transitions

I work with: Individuals seeking deeper vitality, resilience, and ease—experiencing early-stage health challenges, the natural changes that come with aging, or through life transitions such as career shifts, new parenthood, or retirement. Together, we listen somatically and attune to what’s unfolding beneath the surface

My approach: Holistic (an integrative approach recognizing the interconnectedness of life’s dimensions) and Transformational (values-driven, guiding lasting shifts in mindset and behaviour).

Work with me: Virtually Base: Vancouver, BC, CDA

    - Priya, Non-Profit Program Director

  • "Michelle is an extraordinary wellness coach—adaptable, flexible, sensitive, and authentic.... her greatest gift is the ability to teach and model self-compassion. The accountability she provided was life-changing."

    - Jill, Registered Nurse & single parent

    —Jon, Retired Business Owner & Grandparent

    — Grace, Creative Freelancer

  • "Michelle has been like a mirror—reflecting parts of me I couldn’t see on my own. Through our work, I’ve not only learned about self-compassion, I’ve made it part of my everyday life. The tools and reflections we explored continue to guide me. They remind me that I’m still learning—and that’s okay."

    Rina, Former Tech Professional transitioning to Authoring Children’s Books

    Tom, Restaurant Owner

  • "I thought I was signing up for weight loss coaching. What I received was so much more: a safe space to understand myself, meet my body with kindness, and finally release the shame I’d carried for years."

    Laura, Stay-at-Home-Mother exploring midlife transformation

I hold space for transformation that emerges from within—supporting you to listen deeply, honour your needs, and move towards change that feels safe, sustainable, and true to who you are

Hi I’m Michelle (she/her), a Mind-Body & Wellness Coach with over two decades of experience in healthcare, education, and community-based settings. I’m an artist, lifelong learner, nature lover, avid traveler, and proud dog-mama—drawn to beauty, balance, and the quiet wisdom of the body.

For years, I chased symptoms, believing something was inherently wrong with me. My healing began when I softened into the truth: I wasn’t broken. Through somatic practices, nervous system care, and compassionate self-inquiry, I began the work of coming home to myself.

Now, I walk alongside individuals moving through the thresholds of stress, burnout, life transitions, or the tender territory of early or chronic health challenges. Through an integrative blend of behavioural science, mindfulness, and somatic care, we invite transformation that is embodied, compassionate, and rooted in the wholeness already within you.

Clients describe our sessions as grounding, emotionally clarifying, and deeply supportive. Whether you're cultivating sustainable habits, softening old patterns, or reconnecting to yourself, I offer a space of care, truth, and curiosity. Healing isn’t about striving to fix who we are—it’s about remembering, listening inward, and allowing transformation to arise from within.
